This was a quick enjoyable read for me. It definitely almost reads like a YA. Zippy is such a great character- very naïve- but she is well developed and it is fun to go on this journey with her. I love how it captured the feelings around the early AIDS crisis from a young girl’s perspective. Maybe there will be a Shopgirls 2, I hope so!
